Follow these steps and you will be on your way to completing your FAU application:
1. There are two ways to apply:
- Submit the FAU Online Application, OR
- Submit the Common App
Spring applicants must submit the FAU Online Application. Students should only submit one application.
2. Pay the non-refundable $30 application fee
3. Complete and submit your Self-reported Transcript and Student Academic Record (STARS). If you have already graduated from high school and are applying to FAU as a first-year student, please do not submit the STARS. Instead, please ensure that your high school sends us your final official transcript.
4. Self-report your SAT, ACT, or CLT test scores via your Future Owl Portal.
Florida Atlantic University is subject to Florida Board of Governors admissions regulation 6.002, which requires first-year students seeking admission to submit an ACT, CLT, or SAT test score.
Nursing applicants and applicants who have already graduated high school must submit official test scores (instead of self-reported scores). Official test scores must be ordered directly from the College Board (SAT), ACT, or CLT testing agencies. To submit official test scores, visit the following websites:
- SAT: FAU code 5229 at collegeboard.org
- ACT: FAU code 0729 at act.org
- CLT: cltexam.com
